Scale-anomaly-induced binding pressure in hadrons
arXiv:2507.23786 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2025.139872
Abstract
The effect of the QCD scale anomaly on the internal pressure distribution of hadrons is studied based on the trace-traceless decomposition of the energy-momentum tensor. Using recent model-independent results of gravitational form factors as input, the pressure distributions of both pions and nucleons are analyzed in the instant form and the light-front form. It is found that, in all cases, the scale anomaly dominantly generates the negative binding pressure. This result suggests that the phenomenon is a universal feature, independent of models, types of hadrons, and the choice of form.
